"Hmm, he has indeed made a decision and is prepared to break through at this time." After receiving the message from Wu Shijiu, the thought that it was indeed as expected surfaced in Pei Xuanjing's mind.
When Wu Shijiu first came to ask him, Pei Xuanjing had been so blunt in telling him, and the meaning was very clear.
If Wu Shijiu was considered Pei Xuanjing's collaborator back then, then with Pei Xuanjing's suppression of the Taixu Venerable and his current promotion to the Spiritual Realm Level Nine Strongest, Wu Shijiu was no longer sufficient to be Pei Xuanjing's collaborator.
Collaboration is established on the premise of equality in strength. If there is a great disparity in the power between the two parties, even if they speak of collaboration, it is nothing but empty talk. It is not a matter that depends on the will of the parties involved; ultimately, everything rests upon strength.
